In October 2004, Steve Dickman and his roommate began making kombucha in their apartment and giving it away to friends and family. Soon, requests for the fermented tea became so overwhelming, they decided to quit their jobs and dedicate themselves to producing it full-time, and High Country Kombucha was born.

To be certified organic, animals must be fed 100-percent organic feed, have access to the outdoors, and they can’t be fed animal byproducts or be treated with antibiotics.

In the Chicago neighborhood where I live, I’m lucky to have a small Green Grocer that specializes in local organic food and drinks. When Mark and I recently tried some tilapia fillets from Aquaranch, we were blown away by the freshness and flavor of the fish. We asked Green Grocer’s Cassie Green about the product and she referred us to Aquaranch owner Myles Harston, an innovator in aquaponics who grows fish and organic vegetables just a few hours south of Chicago, in Flanagan, Illinois.
